Last week More In Common published a poll that said if Boris Johnson became Tory leader he would turn a 8 point lead for Reform into a 3 point lead for the Tories. Longstanding readers of PB know my view about multilevel hypothetical polls, they are the Hawaiian pizzas of opinion polls and they should be rejected by right thinking people everywhere as I explained here. If Boris Johnson became Tory leader again then Nigel Farage would use the stats…
Ipsos note A new Ipsos in the UK poll reveals that the British public is slightly more likely to consider Reform UK the main opposition and believe that Nigel Farage is now more likely to become Prime Minister than Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch.

David Cameron really was exceptional, we may not see his like again, since the turn of the millennium other than David Cameron no Tory leader has served more 38 months. No wonder Ladbrokes make it 2/9 that Badenoch will not make it to the next general election, the Tories really do like ditching their leaders this century. TSE
Readers of Popbitch will be aware of the longstanding discussion over who would win a fight between a badger and a baboon but last week the internet came up with a new variation, who would win a fight between 100 unarmed men and a silverback gorilla. I think the 35% who went for the men are utterly deluded. TSE PS – A baboon would easily beat a badger in a fight and I will entertain no further discussion on this…
